How Can Constipation Be Treated While Suffering From Heavy Menstrual Bleeding?

Quick back story, ive had 5 heavy periods in the past 11 weeks and am going to have an ultrasound on Monday for it. I m on pain medication for chronic back pain and so I am constipated, which is normal for me. I m wondering if it would be safe for me to use a mini enema while I m on one of these heavy periods?
